Hope Chapel marking 30 years
KIHEI - Hope Chapel will celebrate its 30th anniversary with a special 9 a.m. service Sunday on the north lawn outside the church at 300 E. Welakahao Road.
No child care will be available during the service. Festivities will continue after the service with food and games for children and adults.
Hope Chapel was founded in 1980 in Kihei.

Participants meet from 5:50 to 7:30 Wednesdays on the Hope Chapel campus, according to spokeswoman Toni Spence. AWANA is an acronym for Approved Workmen Are Not Ashamed, from the biblical verse 2 Timothy 2:15, she said.
